This was a great adventure game, it almost felt like Putt-Putt saves the Zoo or Pajama Sam, but not quite on their level. Still it was a fun adventure game. My only criticism was the platforming, it was a little hard but I made it to the end. Thanks for making it!

Nice game, although I have an ultrawide monitor and the UI didn't work correctly on it. Fitting music, nice UI animations and nice level design. One of the best games I've played so far on this game jam. Would love to try again with UI fixed.

This game definitely deserves the full rating 🔥🔥 I loved it so much, I can’t believe I’m competing against such a game, my hopes of mining has shattered 😂

The platforming was a pain though since the camera angle doesn’t help, my only complain

There is a tiny bug here if you quit before returning the thing to it’s place

I really love how charming this game is. The graphic, the characters, the animations, the dialogs are all great. Most of the puzzles are quite straightforward, not a bad thing though. (The dorm door one did took me awhile but that's only because I was so convinced that the note had something to do with the door's code.) The music was also great.

There are quite a few bugs though:

1. Sometime, the outline of the investigated object persists.


2. You can get stuck on stuffs after jumping on it such as, the sink, the stick bridge in the beginning.

3. You can buy another coffee at the shop for 0 coins after buying once, you can also give the coffee obtained this way to the rat who wanted coffee, which I suspect to be the reason for the next bug.

4. The manager's office won't open for some reason despite completing all 4 quests. The cutscene that is supposed to play before the manager's office open won't trigger either. This happened after I found bug #3.

Great job on this amazing game.

Suuuuper solid entry, it was so charming. The font choice and pop-ups, the music, the visuals, the characters and dialog, it was all great. I spent a lot longer on this than I initially planned haha, but I had to finish.

Two pieces of feedback, the jumping puzzles are pretty rough. The control in the air is good, but the lack (or subtlety) of shadows made judging distance, direction, and the bear's position in the air really hard.

The final token quest at the end was a nice way to really scavenge through all the artwork, but I was really wanting a save option or some sort of hints by that point (TBH, there may have been hints, I didn't talk to many characters after meeting the manager).

Anyway, lovely game, very well done!

Very fun game and looks great! Looks and feels great, especially to have been done in 10 days.

What a fun little adventure full of charm and funny characters.  Love the callout about going the wrong way in the maze lol

Super cute game, and a lot of systems to set up in 10 days! I really enjoyed this. Only small issue is that the UI cuts off when run in ultrawidescreen (3440x1440) but it never hindered the gameplay.

Wow. I'm completely floored by this. I thoroughly enjoyed this charming game. The puzzles were great, the mechanics were fun, and it was visually perfect. Sadly I got myself stuck near the end. (I jumped on top of the bear in the garden that tells you about the runes and was unable to jump off) but I'm honestly tempted to start over just to see the ending. 10/10 perfect jam game.
